Bug 341565 – media-libs/netpbm-10.51.00-r1 can't compile in gentoo/freebsd-7.2: can't find alloca.h

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo/Alt

[Description i.Dark_Templar 2010-10-18 00:47:54 UTC]

media-libs/netpbm tries to include <alloca.h> system header. But FreeBSD 7.2 doesn't have this header. That causes compilation error. Instead of <alloca.h>, programs must use <stdlib.h> for function "alloca()" at FreeBSD.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge =media-libs/netpbm-10.51.00-r1

Actual Results:  
Emerge fails

Expected Results:  
Successfully emerge

Confirmed built fine both on Linux and FreeBSD. I'll add this patch in a few days.
